Lemon Lime Ricordea Yuma

<div class="more_detail"> <div class="more_detail"> <p>In general, mushroom corals coming from the genus Ricordea have small and rounded body with berry shaped tentacles. Both sides of the Ricordea Mushroom Corals are functional where the bottom part acts as a locomotive mechanism while the top portion acts as a mouth.</p> <p>As for the Lemon Lime Ricordea Yuma, they are predominantly colored violet with green tentacles. This are the water parameters for cultivating Lemon Lime Ricordea Yuma: </p> <ul> <li>Calcium: 400 - 450 ppm</li> <li>Alkalinity: 2.86 - 4.29 MEQ/L (8 - 12 dKH)</li> <li>Phosphates: 0</li> <li>Magnesium: 1200 - 1350</li> <li>Strontium: 8 - 10</li> <li><span class="subListHeading1">Temperature: </span>72° - 78° F (22° - 26° C)</li> <li><span class="subListHeading1">Salinity / Specific Gravity:</span> 1.023 - 1.025</li> <li>pH: 8.1 - 8.4</li> </ul> </div> </div>

<p><span class="subListHeading1">In the wild, Lemon Lime Ricordea Yuma has developed a symbiotic feeding relationship with marine algae called zooxanthellae that is living within their tissues. But in captivity, you have to feed them with nanoplankton and you may add dissolved organics in the water.</span></p>

<p>A mature tank is highly recommended in propagating Lemon Lime Ricordea Yuma. They must be set at the botoom of the tank to simulate their natural wild environment.</p>

<p>The Lemon Lime Ricordea Yuma requires moderate lighting and moderate waterflow.</p>

<p>The Lemon Lime Ricordea Yuma can be found in the waters of the Indo-Pacific Ocean.</p>

<p>The Lemon Lime Ricordea Yuma has a semi-aggressive behaviour. Proper spacing must be observed in relation to other coral species in the tank.</p>

<p>The Lemon Lime Ricordea Yuma is a marine species. Therefore, salinity must be maintained thoroughly at 1.023 to 1.025 s<span class="subListHeading1">pecific gravity.</span></p>

<p>The Lemon Lime Ricordea Yuma has long sweeper tentacles that can sting nearby corals.</p>
